HalfTime is a program for Windows designed as an audio plugin to create slow-motion effects by applying half-speed processing to sound. Producers and musicians can transform melodies, beats, and vocals into deep and rich textures.
Processing
The tool automatically slows down audio to 50% speed, giving deep, atmospheric sounds. This effect enhances melodies, drum loops and vocals by adding weight and depth. Users can apply the reverb effect to entire tracks or specific frequency ranges for detailed customization.
There are loop controls that let you adjust half-speed playback to match specific rhythms. Timing options include 1/16, 1/8 and full-bar lengths for precise execution of slowdown effect. The fade-in and fade-out are available for smooth transitions between normal and half-speed tracks.
Dry and wet
Moreover, you can blend the reverb waves with the original signal using the mix control. The dry/wet slider allows you to apply subtle or extreme slowdown effects. Such a method is ideal for adding depth and variation to loops, samples and instruments. After you finish the production of your compositions, you may directly upload them on various streaming platforms like SoundCloud.
